Intelligent care of the body is nec- essary itt all times and each season brings its own problems. "How to look cool when you're not" is the problem Which nest of tis faceluring the summer months. Cleanliness of person is of the greatest importance and in order to be clean we must bathe: Bathe M a tub if .you have one; if riot, a sponge bath will have to do, but the all-over bath once a dsiy is very desirable. A bath not only cleanses the sur- fed, of the skin, But helps to remove the dead tinter ekin, opens the pores and' allows manyliiipurffies to escape. Becauge of this, I prefer the hot tub to be takeii at' night When free per- spiration is allowed to follow. The daytime bath is usually a hurried af- fair, followed by the use of talcum powder in order to check perspira- tion; this clogs up' the pores and de- feats one purpose of the bath. Snongiog the body with lukewarm water has a ,cooling effect and is very refreshing on a warm day. Such a bath can well become a part of the afternoon toilet and can.be followed , by a liberal use of talcum powder in order to cheek the perspiration - which would be so uncomfortable when dreseing for the afternoon or evening. Perspiration which is especially of- fensive in odor is a trial to whioh no one need' be subjected. Very .satis- factory remedies fes- the correction of such odors -have been placed on the market, ' Mild eages can be 'relieved by -rubbing a pinch of bicarbonate of, soda in the armpit. There is a tal- emu Powder much Used by nurses - which corrects body odors, *but for extreme cases it may be necessary to use the stronger preparations. With the present style of dress it is almost impossible to wear dress ehields and if the perspiration is very fres iinder the arms a simple, preparation which will check the fiow Is recommended. Brontidrogis—Perspiration of the -feet . is roost uncomfortable and is sited -0 worse if accompanied by 0 bad odor. This is really a disease known„ as "bromidrosis" and is difficult to cure. The feet should be bathed night and meriting th water contain- ing Salt or alum. •The stockings should be ohanged daily or even twice a day, and several .pairs of shoes should be kept in use in order to al- low each pair to be thoroughly aired and dried befote being worn again. For the treatment of bromidrosis the following formula, to be dusted th the shoes night and morning: Sali- cylic acid,. one dram; boric acid, four drams; menthol, thirty grains; euca- lyptol, thirty minims; French chalk, four ounces.. Rub into a fine powder In a mortar (this should be done by a. druggist), One of our readers was cured of this trouble by using a mix-. ture consisting of one ounce each of glycerine and tincture of myrrh. Rub on the feet night atid morning. '. Lotion for Tan—The following lo- tion is, recommended for those who tan: Rosewater, one pint; pulverized borax one-half ounce; lemon juice (strathed),*. one ounce. Hee lotion freely after being exposed to the sun. A broad -brimmed hat will afford pro.. Lection against i he sun's rays, a veil protect e against loth sun and wind. A good -method is to apple' a good lotion or eream Mid cover this a.ith powder. . Long, motet trips alh ver h hard on the skin. After a long ride in wind, dust or .sun, cleanse the skin thor- oughly With a go id cold creath, allow- ing the cream to work into the ,ores, then wipe off with absorbent cotton and an old Peen towel or handker- chief, The thee eliould not be washed entil the neemorning, when' the in- flammation mired by, the pen and wind h's. disappeared. The face may then lie well washed with warm water anti a' good 'soap, and well rinsed with eold water. Follow this method after unueizai exposure. JAMS AND CONSERVES. A well stocked preserve cupboard is.a great comfort at all times and is especially appreciated "when com- pany econee." As we all do not use the same names for these Preserved producte, I think it would he more clear to first define' the names as I am going to use thorn,. ' Prceerveg—This. name is given to the product enede by cooking together definite quantities of fruit and sugar to the -.point where they will keep without being sealed air -tight. The aim is to keep, the original shape and appearance of the fruit as nearly as, possible. , Jaen—The fruit is crushed in the juice. 'As a rule only the small fruits of which the whole may be used are made Into jams, Butters—These are similar to ajrns but the ingredients are more thor- oughly mixed together and, the pro- duct is more smooth. Spices and other flavorings are used. Marrnalados—Theee are midway between jams and butters. - Oosieerves--These are marmalade mixtures with the addition of mite and raisins. Practically the same proportien of. fruit and sugar is used in all the above products. It is a conmion pract- ice to use equal quantities of fruit nd sugar by weight or measure „but ho proportion of three-fourths meas- ure of sugar to one measure of fruit has been found to he more satisfac- tory. This gives a more delicai,e flavor and a better conaistericy. This proportioo of sugar to fruit, when cooked to the proper concentration is sufficient to keep the product without air -tight sealing. Too Much iugste not only increases the .cost of the product. but tends to cover up the flavor of the individual fruits and reduces all kinds of preserves to the common syrup flavor., Where the aim is to retain the shape of the trait as in preserves, the fruit should be cooked from the beginning in the sugar syrup. This has a tend- ency to harden the flesh and retain the shape. When a fruit has a largo amount of fibre or when it is to be mashed, the fruit should be cooked until tend ee before edding the sugar. This is unnecessary in the case Of small fruits. , One does not need individual recipes as the combination of fruits and flavorings is largely a matter of per- sonal taste, , The following steps in the prepara- tion of preserved products aPpIy to practically 'ail types: 1. Wash and look over the fresh fruit. • 2. Weigh or 'measure carefully, 3. Prepare and cut up large fruits. 4, 'Use only enough water to pre- vent the pulp ,from sticicing to the bottom of the kettle and burning. 5. Do not fill the kettle, full, leave room for stirring. Cook gently on a steady fire, 6. Add sugar, using three-fourths of a cup of sugar to one cup of fruit or three-fourths of a pound of sugar tO one pound of prepared fruit. 7. Add spices -and other flavorings 8. Continue cooking at simmering point, stir carefully. Cook until the mass falls in heavy drops from the spoon, i 41, Pour into sterilized glasses or jars. .Seal to prevent the absdrption of moisture. I,abel.

CHAPTER XXVIII.' It was years sinee Christopher Smarie had visited Lucerne—"Lovely Lucerne," as -the guide -books so truly deselbe ft. e had gene on 0 Cook's tour when quite a young man, and there was a girl in the party who had rather obscured his first vietii of Switzerland. He remembered the girl better than he did. Lucerne. Indeed, he could not forget or overlook that girl—woman, as she was now --the she had since become Mrs. Christoph- er 3tnar4 andthe rnother Of his num- erous family. How odd to think that Iffillie and he had once -been lovers here. 1 . There had !seen' a" 'storm, but as Christopher left the station the Sun came out. Old Pilatus, however, wore his usual crest of cloud. The place keened very strange to Christopher —as though he had never seen it, be- fore, For one thing, he had forgotten that there wore so many hotels., Per- haps a lot.of 'new oneehad-been hoilt since his time. And,. althotigh .it was SO' early in 'the season, thee seemed to be crowds of people abeut. It was terribly confusing. Supposing that this ,befooled doctor should have' de- cided to take his bride to: one of the snuffler places further up the lake? It would ..not be easy to find them. Christopher's eyes—the chilly eyes of a somewhat cold -heated London soli- eitor—dwelt indifferently, upon the masses df pink and white fruit bine som which bespattered the 'hillaides, and east no more than a weather - Curious glance upon the mountains. Lovely 'Lucerne had but one mean- ing for him—it was the haven of a newly wedded couple into whose pert of bliss he meant to bring storm. But if he could not find them? Having run the'. gauntlet of the 'hotel porters, he sallied forth with his funereal -looking black bag, a tall; forbidding figure, in striking contrast to the mild airs and fittalasunshine of spring. The little lake waves danced beneath his feet as he crossed the bridge opposite the station, apd be- yond the bridge away swirled the mad green river, in a riotous, entic- ing fury of sound and movement— but CheLetopher scarcely noticed any of it. There were the curious old wooden bridges --yes, he remembered them. It hadsrairted a great dealsdur- ing his former visit, and Millie and he had spent quite a lot of time on one of the coyered bridges, following the painstaking history of the saint 1whose troubled life was set forth so realistically and so beautifully it long series of quaint old pictures. . Yes, and he remembered the famous Lion of Lucernees-sornewhere at the back beyond the cathedral -church, wasn't it? On a Sunday afternoon in August, Millie and he and the rest of the party had paid their respects to the huge lion, carved in the face of the living reek, and since it was an anniversary of the tragedy Of .tho brave Swiss guard who had covered the escape, of Louis XVL and the ill- fated Marie Antoinette, a band of that same regiment had played all the afternoon in the lair of the old atone lion. Christopher remembered that Millie had wept and waved her hand- kerchief and applauded, just as though she, too, had some reason to feel senti- mentally patriotic. He had been so tonched by the in- cident that shortly afterwards he ..asked Millie to marry him. But enough of this sort of thing. He shook himself free of it and set - tied to the business of,,finding a cheap but good hotel, Haff an hour later he lied established his hag in a hos- telry which seemed to meet his re- quirements, and was off again to find the Ardeynes, beginning with the big hotels; along the lake front. * .5 0 * Philip and his bride eeached Lu- cerne very early in the morning. They drove at once to the Schweizer - hot, where Ardeeme had engaged rooms, had breakfast, and then—after a bath and change—sallied forth to enjoy the freshness of the sunshine. Philip was a little more gra.ve, a little more thoughtfill than circum- stances would seem to dematd, but Alice took such a 'keen Interest in everything that she scarcely noticed his abstraction. ,She was alive to her finger-tips and filled with the delicious intoxication which must possess any- one who entera the gates tot Switzer- land for the fleet tirrie. " "I didn't dream it was" go lovely!" she said, 'her hands locked together ler 'the, pain and joy of it. "Ah, why didn't- somebody tell me!" , "Walt until you've seen the real Alpe," Philip said. "The real ,said. But, surly, Philip —there couldn't be any highee inoun- tains than these?" He smiled, fondly, sadly. , , "There are' always higher moun- tains," he repliedm his Mood heavy upon him. - She laughed heartile and shook his "Wake en, you silly boy! What can 1 yog1 don'tniea?" know. What was I saying? 011, it doesn't maStet. Come, my dar- ling, let's see if we Ban 'find a boat to take, us somewhere." , "Oh, Philip, that woeld be jolly! One of those little motor -boats?" , "Yee, Soleiglid idea." "If they don't -cost too mach," Alice suppthmented, "I didn't think about that." He squeezed her hand. If only money ceuld zeta° all their difficulties, how shit* life would be. He had plenty of money;bub where was his fund of moral courage? Ebb- . ing way rather fast—as fast, ethicist, as this mad little river 'escaped from the deep bosom of the lake. • The,y fared forth in the .little 'hired motor -boat for a long day's cruiSe up Ilia lake. The beat had a gaily ,strip- ed awning, and for some unknown reason Dew- the American flag Sat her stern. There were rags and cushions., a box of chocolates for Alice, and presently a thundeeptoem hurtling across the mountains at terrific speed. There was just time to put into the shelter' of a thalithig cove.before the storm broke, The placici lake became a turbulent, .wind -lashed ocean, dash, ed with foam and sheeted with driven The man—an Italian -Swiss --assur- ed them it would net last long mad that there' was no, danger. He tented them in with sail -cloth, leaving a gen- erous spade on the side where the rain did not come, so they could view the magnificent 05500 i0 cosy comfort. At Least Tite 're Not Lost Shet---"A man's lost without a wife." Bachelor—"That may be, but he al- ways knoWS where to find him clean collars and shirts.' Of course she woeld do as lie fold her. It was so wonderful to have him arranging things for her, It was such a splendid, new itlea having a husband to order one about. "Oh, I sho,uld just hate not to be married!" she murmured to herself as he caeefully shepherded her oft the boat. . It was juet a step across to the hotel. Ardeyne left her at the door of the lift and the departed to see about the thleggains. Alice went in tip to their suite. There was a sitting -room, just as murnsey ,and she had at the Mimosa Palace, and a private ,bath as weIl. Also two -bedrooms. But it was a far grander suite than -at the Nlimosa Palace, and now, f _course, there would be no anxiety aboist the cost of it. She looked about a little shyly. The bedroonCia were at opposite ends. Hers was the target... It had a very wide balcony generously fringed with boxes of spring flowers. She was tired, but almost too ex- cited to lie down and sleep, The un- packed trunks worried her. Bat, no —Philip had told her to take a nap, and a wife must obey her husbend. Hadn't she promised only yesterday? She took og her hat and coat and was just about to change her dress for a wrapper when sotneone knocked at the sitting -room door. It was one 01 the pageboys, and he had a tray on which reposed the visit- ing card of Mr. Christopher Smarle. The gentleman, he told Alice, was waiting downstairs. He_would like to see madame. Mr. Christopher &mete? - Alice knew the name well. It was - that solicitor cousin of theirs who at- tended to nonnsey's money affairs. I -tow odd of Mi. Smarle to turn up here wanting to see her. Row did he know—? And then her heart contracted with a terrible spasm of fear, Taking no account of the limited time there bad been, she thought she understood what had happened. Mumsey was ill, dying, perhaps dead, and Mr. Chris- topher Smarle had been telegraphed to break the news in person, "Oh send him ITV" she cried. If only Philip were'here. Would it have been better to wait until Philip came back? But no—she couldn't wait. If anything had happened to mum - ser -1 "I must be brave," she told herself. It seemed a long time, but finally the pageboy reappeared, and now he had Christopher 'with him, The sight of the tall, forbidding - looking man strengthened Alice's pre- monition of evil, " She was so filled with apprehension that she failed to greet him properly. Itteffect, she dragged him inside with a lack of:formality which etartmed her at onee, in the mind of Christopher,' as the true daughter of her scattee- brained mother. "Oh, Mr. Smarle, what is it—what • is it? Have you conle to bring me Christephee deposited his hat and s. gloves one chair, and gave her the full benefit hi his gthomy gaze. "Very bad indeed, Pre sorry to say," he replied. For- a few seconds it seemed to Alme that her heart stopped beating entirely.
